Yikes, what a grueling schedule you kept! Hopefully it's not so bad now!
It wasn't even that bad then. You set your mind to something, and do what has to be done. There's nothing magical about it.

The problem with 99% of America's "poor" comes down to two things:
1. They don't realize they're not poor. In fact, with all the government hand-outs, a family can be VERY well situation without ever working a day of their lives. America's poor are RICH compared to the world's poor.
2. They want everything handed to them, without having to earn anything.
